Book
I wanted to leave town
so I went to the library
and read a book.

Life's Lessons Learned (and those I refuse to learn)
About Me
- sister AE
- Intelligent, lesbian, jewish. I don't get enough exercise and I'm supposed to watch my cholesterol. For fun, I read & cook. I have eclectic taste in nearly everything.
Inspiration
The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.
- from the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám
Never let the truth stand in the way of a good story.
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.
- from the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám
Never let the truth stand in the way of a good story.
But never let a good story stand in the way of truth.

Doesn't this just work?!! I love it! Cleverly done.
Somehow, I have a feeling I have left town on many, many occasions!
Loved your poetic idea!

Thanks, Sue and Gemma!
Let's just say that I read hundreds of books before I left the small town I grew up in.
I've certainly travelled more through reading than in reality.
Towns, countries, planets; you can trvel anywhere by book - cheap and fast!

Hello, Gautami. So THAT's how you manage all those reviews. Actually, I used to read more when I took public transportation to work, but in recent years I've been commuting by car.
The perfect getaway, every time.
